The sleep experts were only worried about where I would be buying my cpap supplies

I've been using CPAP for just about a year. After three hours I take it off while asleep. This happens with full or just nose mask. any advice as to keeping my mask on all night ? Thanks

TIPS

Im new to this and my first two nights have both been 100 and im still a little tired. The full face mask didnt work so now im on nasal mask, so far so good. Ill see after a week.

Y score was 100 events 2.0

Hello, is a nasal mask supposed to have air come out if the top of the hose l?

Is this really work?

Thank you very much much 🙏

I've had my CPAP machine for over a week and I've not been able to sleep at all while it's on. I wear it for a couple of hours and then take it off to get some sleep.

On my Airsense 10 the output pressure starts out low and gradually builds to the appropriate pressure output settings for me. By the time that the unit reaches the optimal pressure setting for me, I am already asleep so it does not bother me. The old unit I had years ago did not have this capability so back in the day when using the old model that I had, I pretty much had to put up with at the full pressure setting that was set on that unit. I am so glad that they added the capability for the pressure to gradually adjust until reaching optimal setting. It makes going to sleep with the mask on much much easier.

My dry mouth is more complex. I use a full face, but long ago I had a mouth guard that had a tongue bar on it. I have a bad habit of sucking on my tongue at night as a part of clenching. This is maintained like this for some time, and it pulls water out of the membranes and also can swell the tongue papillae. I broke my guard a long time ago. I may have to get another one.

I like how you break this down. Its like you're talking personally to me and know what I'm experiencing as I feel like throwing in the towel with this thing. But I know it will help. I just don't want to have to use it forever either.

Side. Before I got diagnosed with sleeping apnea and CHF slept on my stomach.

Use CPAP nose pillow & chin strap (mouth breather). My bite has changed cause of chin strap. Horrible tmj from it. All ither full face masks made my whole face swell up

Been using mine for 4 months. Use it every night, knowing that if i dont ill have 30+ events per hour. That's not sleep.

Lots of problems.😮

That is great. My mask was too heavy.

Does fixing a deviated septum help with sleep apnea?

I keep getting a low score, no matter what I do! I tightened my mask, made sure no leak, wore it an hour before sleep and it’s the same result. Which is that I wore it only an hour when I know I slept 7 hours. So frustrating!

My question is my lips are dry with dry mouth

My prescribed bipap pressure is 24/20. The Bleeps work great for a few minutes, and usually for 2-3 hours. After that, however, my experience is that the metal rings start detaching from the tape and leaks develop. It isn't a matter of the tape coming off or loose from my skin--its the ring coming loose from the tape.

Been on cpap since 2009. Had Dr. support for three years. Bought my own auto adjust. He had me on 11. Was too much had leak. Auto shows me it is on 8 most of the time. I sleep pretty well at age 77. Don't need tube holder. It goes at top of head below pillow and rolls easily with me.

How to get a cpap machine if you don't have insurance

Thank you for all your help, I am learning more about the use of the monitor, God bless you for careing.

Resumed air sense 10 do you set pillows or nasal ?

Doesn't help have a broken nose with a deviated septum it puts a lot of pressure on that point and I can go to sleep but then I'll end up in the middle of night hurting from it and I take the mask off

The best thing I did was change my lung doctor the new one I got listen to me I had got covid in 2021 and I'm a lung haller that is a gift that just keep going and the sleep apnea machine is the best thing I can't believe how different when I I sleep with this.

Ive just started cpap 4 days ago. Im starting to have chest pains.. is this normal?

I hate my bi pap machine. My bi pap was worse. Been using these things for 15-20 years, have gotten nowhere.😢

I had a CPAP for a while, but got no help and I returned it since I was wasting my time. Good luck, everyone.

Thank you. I am trying to help my husband get this cpap thing.

I have been using my CPAP for 32 years. Love my CPAP

I cough a lot sometimes during therapy...like choking or waking up coughing. Why ?

This would be a Southern gentleman?

I have air coming out of the connection tubing in the back when I remove the tubing but when I replace the tubing no air is coming out the mask. When I remove the water chamber huge air is coming out until I replace it. Why when I turn the machine on I am not getti g air through the tubing. I had this machine for 8 years so I know what I'm doing help me please

Mine is 4-20. Starts off great but then later in the night the pressure wakes me up. It’s too much. I think I need like 4 to 10 to 15 at the most. Can I change it myself?

apparently they didn't pay enough because FDA allows poison to be in cereal and everything else just because it's FDA approved doesn't mean it's good for you

67 year old, scorte 89, first 7 nights, av ahi 11.1 per night, 5 hours sleep a night, mask seal good. feeling tired in the morning and during the day.....

😂😂First thing I thought when you were explaining maintenance is, what filter? When I got my CPAP it was thru the mail, no help with anyone. The business I deal with for supplies basically goes like this, what mask do you want? OK here it is, now pay. No help at all. So thank-you, I’ve learned a lot👍

The link above in the description doesn't lead to the product. I can't even find it on your website.

Good information! I use Mouth Tape to keep my mouth closed at night. It works great. Not the the one that covers your whole mouth though.
